Imagine being ridiculed for being yourself, feeling trapped inside the wrong body, or being judged on a regular basis. They’re issues transgender people in our community face each day.

In the WRAL Documentary, “Transformed,” we follow a transgender man and woman and explore their everyday challenges. They discuss the relief, stress and hard work that comes with transitioning. They describe what it’s like to experience moments of depression, fear and rejection. And they talk about House Bill 2.

For some, the struggles begin early in life. The documentary introduces us to a transgender teenager, his family and a place where they can go for help.

"Transformed" is an eye-opening look at what it’s like to be a transgender person in North Carolina.
